1 EXHIBIT 17(b)(4) [JANNEY MONTGOMERY SCOTT LOGO] Supplemental Presentation to the Board of Directors of Kentek Information Systems, Inc. September 10, 1999 2 Background - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- o Per the SEC's request, Janney Montgomery Scott has performed an additional Discounted Cash Flow Analysis ("Modified DCF Analysis"). o In preparing the Modified DCF Analysis, we: - combined Kentek's adjusted cash as of June 30, 1999 with the calculated "going concern" value of Kentek (i.e. did not discount cash as we did in our Supplemental Presentation dated August 13, 1999) - used the Status Quo Projections prepared by the Company in connection with our Supplemental Presentation dated August 13, 1999 o This Modified DCF Analysis differs from the DCF Analysis in the Supplemental Presentation dated August 13, 1999, in that we used the adjusted cash balance as of June 30, 1999, as oppose to discounting back to present value the cash balance at the end of the projection period. o The Modified DCF Analysis and an updated valuation summary reflecting this additional analysis are presented on the following pages. ----------------------- 2 JANNEY MONTGOMERY SCOTT ----------------------- 3 Discounted Cash Flow Analysis Kentek Information Systems, Inc. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PROJECTED ------------------------------------------------------------ TERMINAL 06/30/00 06/30/01 06/30/02 06/30/03 06/30/04 VALUE -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Sales $ 23,699 $ 17,495 $ 13,283 $ 9,128 $ 6,123 (DELTA) in A/R 399 765 519 512 370 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Cash Sales 24,098 18,260 13,802 9,640 6,493 Cost of Goods Sold 12,323 9,097 6,907 4,746 3,184 (DELTA) in Inventory (1,376) (1,105) (750) (740) (535) (DELTA) in A/P 135 318 216 213 154 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Cash Cost of Goods Sold 11,082 8,311 6,373 4,220 2,803 Cash Gross Profit 13,016 9,949 7,429 5,420 3,690 Operating Expenses 7,870 5,785 4,815 3,595 2,465 Depreciation & Amortization (564) (300) (300) (300) (200) -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Cash Operating Expenses 7,306 5,485 4,515 3,295 2,265 Cash Operating Income 5,710 4,464 2,914 2,125 1,425 Less: 37.5% Pro Forma Tax on Taxable Net Income 1,315 980 585 295 178 Less: Capital Expenditures 361 260 200 200 200 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Unlevered FCF to Capital Providers $ 4,034 $ 3,224 $ 2,129 $ 1,631 $ 1,048 $ 1,348(2) Interest Expense Tax Shield -- -- -- -- -- NPV of Unlevered FCF(1) $ 8,484 Add: NPV of Tax Shields -- Unlevered FCF to Capital Providers -- -------- SUGGESTED VALUE $ 8,484 'Going Concern' Per Share Value $ 1.78 Add: Cash Per Share Value 7.51 -------- SUGGESTED PER SHARE VALUE $ 9.29 EBITDA MULTIPLE RANGE ---------------------------------------------------------- 0.0x 1.0x 2.0x 3.0x 4.0x ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- 12.5% $9.31 $9.39 $9.47 $9.55 $9.63 -------------------------------- DISCOUNT 15.0% $9.23 $9.30 $9.38 $9.45 $9.52 ----- FACTOR 17.5% $9.16 $9.22 $9.29 $9.35 $9.42 ----- RANGE 20.0% $9.09 $9.15 $9.21 $9.27 $9.33 -------------------------------- 22.5% $9.03 $9.08 $9.14 $9.19 $9.24 (1) Unlevered Free Cash Flows discounted at 17.5%, with only 75.1% of Year 1 Unlevered FCF (and Tax Shields) being captured.
